Reverse and antegrade vector thread lifting techniques: Correcting nasolabial and marionette lines.
Article in Journal of cosmetic dermatology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThis study evaluates the efficacy of reverse and antegrade thread lifting vectors in conjunction with thread selection for correcting nasolabial folds and marionette lines, aiming to enhance treatment precision and effectiveness.
methodsThree female patients aged 43, 48, and 53, presenting with primary concerns regarding nasolabial folds, underwent distinct treatment regimens utilizing various types of threads and vectors. Additionally, video demonstrations were recorded to showcase the procedural techniques employed in each case.
resultsThe outcomes of the thread lifting procedures demonstrated significant improvements in the correction of the nasolabial fold and marionette line.
conclusionInnovative thread insertion techniques involve entry points above the zygomatic arch and threading toward the temple hairline for lateral face lifting. These utilize barbs to pull skin and underlying tissues. The reversal technique involves inserting threads in a criss-cross pattern, forming a fibrous structure that may prolong the duration of results. Various thread combinations, considering factors such as composition, thickness, and barb size, provide customized procedures. This research introduces clinical applications, including temple area hairline lifting for nasolabial fold and marionette line correction, reverse vectors targeting nasolabial folds and marionette lines, and antegrade approaches from the lateral side.
